Children have delicate skin and weaker disease resistance, so they are prone to some skin diseases, such as eczema, rash, etc., which are relatively common skin diseases. Parents need to understand the symptoms of these diseases so that they can distinguish them in a timely manner after their children become ill. So, what are the symptoms of rash in children?
There are many types of rashes in children, which can cause different symptoms. Some children may develop a red, round, and congested rash on their skin after getting a rash. The rash does not protrude above the surface of the skin and will fade when pressed. If the papules are slightly higher than the surface of the skin, it is mostly not a rash, but measles, rubella, etc.
After a child develops a rash, they may also develop red rashes. At this time, the child's skin will have patchy erythema, which is a surface punctate congested erythema, and there may be fading when pressed. Parents should be careful not to let their babies scratch the rash. If there is skin damage, it can easily lead to infection. Parents can cut their baby's nails short and wear gloves while sleeping.
Sometimes the symptoms of a rash may manifest as petechiae or ecchymoses, presenting scattered punctate or patchy bleeding, and may have slight bumps that do not fade after pressing. Due to the itching caused by rash, clothing for babies should not be irritating, and it is best to wear soft cotton clothing for children.
